Purpose: To critically appraise the evidence regarding the effect of enamel sandblasting on
the bond strength of orthodontic brackets on either the labial or lingual tooth surface …

Introduction The purposes of this study were to characterize enamel surfaces treated with
sandblasting, acid etching, or sandblasting followed by acid etching for bonding of …

Introduction We aimed to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of three different retainer
wires and three different bonding adhesives in consideration of the pretreatment process of …

PURPOSE Topographic analysis of treated ceramics provides qualitative information
regarding the surface texture affecting the micromechanical retention and locking of resin …

This study aims to assess the efficacy of a universal adhesive (Scotchbond Universal, 3M
ESPE)(SB) in total-etch mode, compared to a traditional orthodontic primer (Transbond XT …

Objectives This study was conducted in order to investigate whether enamel sandblasting as
an adjunct or substitute to the acid-etch technique has an effect on the shear bond strength …

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro shear bond strength (SBS) and in
vivo bond survival rates of brackets bonded using orthodontic indirect bonding resins …

Aim To evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) and failure percentage of rebonded metallic
brackets after employing various enamel-reconditioning methods (37% phosphoric acid …

Introduction In this study, we evaluated changes in lingual enamel roughness due to
sandblasting with 27-, 50-, and 90-μm aluminum oxide particles followed by 37 …

Objective: To compare bond strength and bond failure location of lingual brackets indirectly
bonded after lingual enamel sandblasting with 27-, 50-, and 90-µm aluminum oxide particles …
